Betrayal

Betrayal is one of fourteen large scale photographic works taken from the exhibition 'Passion'. Uniquely, all the works are self portraits using a variety of photographic techniques. In this image two images of Rafferty have been blended to create his interpretation of the moment Judas kissed the Christ in an act of betrayal. Other works from the exhibition include a 2 metre negative made from photographic cloth for his own interpretation of the 'Shroud'. In another unusual work Rafferty has imprinted his face, skin to cloth, directly for his own version of 'Vero Icon' or 'True image'. Reviews of his 2010 exhibition can be found in the press links section on the CV page.
